Method: This study used a quantitative method with a population of students of SMA Negeri 1 Ayah. The instruments used included an academic stress scale, a social media use scale, and a psychological well-being scale. Results: The study showed that social media use was a significant moderator in the relationship between academic stress and psychological well-being.
